Leicester City transfer news
In this article we will bring you all of today’s Leicester City transfer news. Make sure to check back to the site for more daily transfer updates throughout the summer.
Arsenal stance for Maddison laid out
A story that may continue to rage on until the transfer deadline is the future of James Maddison. Arsenal are thought to be interested in the player, and have opened talks with the foxes over signing the Englishman, with a quoted fee of around 60 million pounds.
As per a series of updates from the reliable AFCBell on twitter, Arsenal have made Maddison their number one target, and are ready to meet Leicester City’s 60 million pound valuation of the player if no compromise can be found.
Although the account reports that there has been no breakthrough yet, talks are thought to have progressed positively, with the outcome leaving Leicester 60 million pounds richer, but in search of another creative option.
Southampton “bracing themselves” for bid from Leicester for defender
Meanwhile, all eyes on the incoming front have turned to centre-back, after Wesley Fofana was ruled out until at least 2022.
As a result, the Foxes look stretched at the heart of defence, and a new defender is now the priority. As per TalkSport, one of those catching the eye is Southampton’s Jannick Vestergaard, who has just 12 months left to run on his current deal at St Mary’s.
As per Journalist Alex Crook:
“The impression I get is that Southampton are very much bracing themselves for a bid from Leicester and if that bid did come in, they would have to seriously consider it given that contract situation,”
“They want to get £20m, I imagine Leicester might go in at £15m and test Southampton’s resolve.”
Could Vestergaard fill the gap left by Fofana?
James Tarkowski and Issa Diop also options
Should a move for Vestergaarf fail to materialise, the Foxes are thought to be ready to target two other Premier League defenders. As per the Athletic, they hold an interest in Burnley’s James Tarkowksi, while the Daily Mail has also noted their interest in West Ham outcast Issa Diop.
It is thought that any deal for Tarkowski, however, would prove challenging due to his value to Burnley. Previously, they have demanded 50 million pounds for their defender, the sort of money that Leicester simply do not have to call upon.
Leicester fans, who would you like to see come in?

Madders should stay and win trophies. Arsenal is still barren. Willian and partey left Chelsea and Atletico respectively, and couldn’t secure a place even In Europa. You leave the winning team na you sabi.

arsenal is really doing everything to get back to elite level again,even though some are saying they ara iverpaying,but still doesn't take away the fact that they are getting young and talented players, white is a good asdition,maddinson can take arsenal to next level,if Auba founds his form again,i am sure that arsenal will be backin top 6 again,and gradually they can progress,but they have to admit that,United,liverpool,chelsea,City are too many level ahead of arsenal....

Arsenal need to stop chasing maddison bc he is not worth the $,they should be looking at pereira from west ham,boussoma from brighton & aoura from lyon💡id also look into raphina from Leeds.Arsenal has players they could swap with,players that have been around long enough & need to move on.

Maddison must stay put at Leicester City this season. He can't join a team not playing in Europe 🤷♂️🤷♂️💯unless he just wants big pay check with no ambitions. Maddison must wait until next season to see if those teams don't play in Europe, maybe by that time if he continues to play better, big teams like Manchester United, Liverpool, Man City and in Spain might come up with an offer
So suddenly top4 is now a trophy? You lots at the red half of Manchester are just making up numbers in the champions league
